Chapter 4: Fatherhood is not forced: it's a choice

In this chapter I try to help mothers understand that they can not make a man "want" to be a father, that is his choice. A lot of mothers believe if they call him all the time fussing and trying to convince him to do the right thing, he will. As a mother once you understand that no matter how much you talk, fuss or have sex with him he will not step up until he decides too. This cycle will keep you frustrated, angry and leads to nowhere but the same result, your son's "father" is not in his life. Your time and energy would serve you best investing in you and your son. I know that you and your son are hurt by his choice but the sooner you accept this the better off you both will be.

Press Release/Can a Woman Raise a Man

Hello, Here is a copy of my press release. Thank you for taking the time to read it....

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Marcee' (mar-say) Bonds

Books Name: A Single Mother's Point of View: Raising a Black Man

Phone: 309-648-####

Email: marsay73@yahoo.com

Can a Woman Raise a Man?

Peoria, Illinois 10/19/2014 if you were to ask the average person this question, their answer would be no, but regardless of how you feel about this age old debate the answer is yes. This has become the norm for the black community and the latest statistic shows that 72% of all black households are headed by single mothers. There have been numerous failed attempts to repair the family dynamic but the best option maybe to empower and encourage the single mothers who are raising black men.

This book is written from a semi-autobiographical perspective. The author is a single mother of two males and she shares how she approached her journey of single motherhood. The main focus is to work on the single mother because as the primary parent everything she does affects the man her son will become.

The book shares tips and guidelines on how to put a positive approach on this situation. Some of the things discussed in the book are dealing with your emotions, understanding that fatherhood is a choice and changing the quality of life for your family. The ultimate goal is to help the single mother to know that she is the most important person in her son's life.

The book is available for purchase and download at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and various other book outlets.

Chapter 3: Be Forgiving and Receptive

In this chapter I discuss how it's important to forgive your baby's father but mainly yourself. It's easy to forgive others the hardest thing is to forgive yourself and once you can remove your self guilt the rest will be easy. This maybe difficult for you but it is necessary and being receptive will allow you to forgive.

Best regards,

Between a Rock and a Paycheck

This past Monday I was in a dilemma that many parents and especially single parents find themselves in. I had a sick child and I found myself making the decision to either stay home or go to work. I have never experienced this predicament before and I really didn't appreciate that I felt a choice had to be made. Well here is the backstory. My one year work anniversary is coming up real soon and I can get a promotion and I was told by supervisor as long as I did not miss anymore days I was more than likely going to get it. Now mind you I think I have only missed 4 days the whole year so far. But anyhow my motherly instinct was to stay home but the provider in me said go to work.

My issue is that most companies always portray that they value family and it's a core value, but do they really? I feel that most corporations are more concerned about their bottom dollar. I know if I didn't go to work that day my employer still would of been open and the phones would of still got answered. Why should I be denied to opportunity to advance because I have a sick child, which is something I have no control over. As a single parent there are always tough decisions but what do you do when your job is one of the choices. I need my job to take care of my family but the health of my children is important to me also. I know from my personal experience and from the customers at my job that the working class is always making tough decisions daily. Pay rent or your electric bill, buy food or buy medicine. To be one of the richest country in the world we have no compassion for the least of U.S. Thankfully my oldest son did not have to work that day and he was able to stay with him. I am grateful he was there but what if he wasn't available. I would of missed a day of work and an opportunity to get a promotion.
